I've always loved meeting new people
and seeing new places, but at the same time I treasured old
memories and cherished places and people of the past. Somewhere
along the way I discovered that photography allowed me to achieve
both.
At an early age I carried a camera with
me everywhere, capturing everything of meaning to me. Life
was spectacular and I didn't want to forget any part of its
wonder and beauty. I discovered that the lens was my invitation
into people's lives. I could meet complete strangers, hear
fantastic stories and create wonderful artwork from "normal
everyday people." I was in love and pursued with intensity.
The world became two dimensional to me and my eyes began to
see potential photographs with every step. For the first time
I realized the magical ability that light, or lack therof,
had in transforming an object. I studied photography through
the Art and Journalism departments at the University of Nebraska.
I feel blessed to live out my passion
for photography, but have more pleasure when I see people smile
as they relive a special event, see a great picture of themselves,
or see the beauty of their child's face captured in a piece
of photographic art.
Thank you to all my clients that trust me with their special memories; you all have a special place in my heart!
Art is known to make the soul grow.
